Ok, well, after a long while of avoiding serebii because of homework, i'm back and I have a lot of weird stuff I made on MS Paint to show off o.o; These aren't really sprites, they're much bigger than the sprites in the game, but I kinda like them and I want to know what people think of them ^^;

A pidgeot I did thats kinda..err...weird colored? Took me about 6 hours to do on MS Paint from scratch

Espeon~ Also made on MS Paint from scratch like all my other pokemon. This one took me about 5 hours to do

A Mareep thats also oddly colored x3 This one, I sketched out on my sketch pad, scanned it, resized, outlined, and colored. Took me about 4 hours

This is a background I made, using 12 colors =D I really suck at the mountain shading, but I really like the grass. This evil thing was also made from scratch and took me...about 12 hours of staring at my computer screen

I can't make them transparent because I have no idea how to do that ^^; But yah...I would love your opinions and suggestions and i'll post more stuff later~

LOL. These are awsome! My favorite is the mountain scenery. I just think the rocks on the right need to be rounder and need an outline on the leftside of them.

I thought some people might enjoy this, so I decided to post it
Sorry for double post everyone ^^;
Ok
I started with the outline and put down some colors I wanted to try
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-1.png
I didn't like the dark brown, so I tried to replace the colors with the game colors
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-2.png
I went and started on the mountains, clouds, sky, and grass
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-5.png
I hated the shading for the clouds so I fixed it
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-6.png
Whoooo Mountains, here we go!
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-7.png
Stopped because I hated shading mountains and started on grass
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f379/xxxxFirexxxx/TCbackground1-8.png
Went back to mountains, shaded more, killed some of the darker areas, and finished~

I really like how Mareep's light reflects onto the face.

-nod nod-
But really, I had no idea where I put my light source xD
I think its like...at the center, but i'm always terrible at choosing a light source and shading in the right direction

That mountain scenery is insane. You only used 12 colors? That's extremely uber.

Yah, I couldn't believe it myself
But if you want proof, count and look at all the steps I did to make it o.o

The Mountians look pretty nice, but they're very light... I do like the clouds though. The pixel arts are great, though I would suggest that you use just a little bit less dithering; things like feathers and the gem on the end of Marrep's tail should look shiny, not rough. The reflection on the (Umreep's?) Mareeps face looks far too.. sharp, the pink should be disperesd and should cover most of the face and some of the wool, legs and ears with a soft glow of pink. Here, it is like a laser pointer, traveling in one straight line and touching only what is directly in front of it. Unless... That may be the way its suposed to be, if they work as a light house becon?

Yah, you practically named everything I was too lazy to fix~
The mareep was a custom and someone asked to make it that way ^^;

The mountains...yah, it does look pretty light, but I used the colors that the mountains in the background of one of the backgrounds from the game since I couldn't decide on a better color. I tried messing around with it, but I had more work to do, so I left it like that

Dithering is just easy for me @-@ Well, its the only thing that makes my stuff turn out decent when i'm watching a show and only half paying attention to my stuff ^^; I tried normal shading while watching youtube, and it turned out horrible >.<

I think what you did was pretty awesome. Doing pixel art in such a large space can be tidious but you did pretty good in that scenery. If you want some critisism though, I think it will look better if the mountains at the back were given one more darker shade, and the rock formation given clearer, more well defined outlines. :) Still, great job on your first scenery!
